How important is networking in college life? Does working with professors matter? And what if you have many academic interests?  After graduating from Colby College with a dual degree in economics and creative writing, Julie, a 2018 Pioneer scholar, is currently a J.D. candidate studying law at Duke University. 
In this episode of Pioneer’s alumni podcast, Uncharted, Julie shares her advice and experiences from adjusting to a liberal arts college as an international student, learning to network, obtaining internships, managing her diverse academic disciplines and handling work-life balance.

About Uncharted: the Pioneer Academics Alumni Podcast
Uncharted: the Pioneer alumni podcast is hosted and produced by alumni of the Pioneer Research Program, a virtual research institute for outstanding high school students. Widely respected for its high standards in selectivity and academic rigor, it is the only fully-accredited and college-credit bearing online research program. In Pioneer, students work one-on-one with university professors in advanced study and research of a topic of their interest ranging from physics to gender studies, culminating in a full-length, undergraduate-level research paper.
